1 Syllabus GVPT 482 Government and Politics of Latin America Classroom TYD1101 Tuesdays and Thursdays 2:00pm - 3:15pm Instructor: Isabella Alcañiz ialcaniz@umd.edu Office: TYD3104A Department of Government and Politics (GVPT), University of Maryland This course examines key political and economic policies in Latin America over the past four decades. The seminar will be of interests to students who wish to deepen their knowledge of major events and trends in the region, such as the democratic transitions of the 1980s, the market reforms of the 1990s, and the rise of a Leftist leadership in the 2000s. Students will survey the main debates of contemporary political economy in the region. Drawing from studies in the field of Comparative Politics and Latin American Studies, this course explores the interactions of political and economic actors under specific international conditions, with a particular emphasis on how the state structures, channels and negotiates the economy. Please note that the course does not have a textbook. Rather, similar to graduate seminars, students must read before class a number of research articles and book chapters assigned to each week. The course is organized in three sections: readings on the STATE, on the ECONOMY, and on SOCIETY. This organization is mainly analytical, as most readings touch on two or all three of these areas. But authors prioritize their focus. An important exercise of this class will be to determine how do different authors direct the arrows of causal explanation: do economic factors shape political outcomes? Do state institutions determine political participation? Course Readings: All class readings are available to you on Elms in the weekly module (or folder) when they are due. In addition, I might post short readings, such as newspaper articles or any other class handout, so please make sure you check regularly the weekly modules for them. GVPT 482 and BSOS Policies: Course Evaluation is based on the following: Participation (10% of final grade) To do well in participation you must come to class well prepared and ready to comment on the readings: pose questions, share your own take of the readings, help further and deepen discussion with your classmates. Further, there will be many in-class exercises, either individual or group based. Completion of these exercises determines in great part your course participation grade, so make sure you do not miss class other than for excused absences. If for any reason participating in class gives you concern, please come see me at the beginning of the semester and I will gladly help you with this. Special Note on Attendance: As class participation is so important, it goes without saying that attendance is critical. You cannot get any credit for participation if you are not in the classroom. Regularly, I will check attendance at the beginning of class but please note that I will not count you present if you are late. Research Design on the State (10% of final grade) In this assignment, students are asked to formulate a viable and relevant research question drawing from the research discussed in the first section on the state. In just one page, students will (1) state 1
2 their research question, which must address an actual empirical puzzle of the region or country in the region; (2) formulate one hypothesis to be tested; (3) make explicit whether the DV and main IVs are political, economic, or societal variables (one must be state or regime-related); and (4) identify two sources of data (with full reference and corresponding online link). This exercise will test the causal thinking of students, their skills in designing a research project, and their understanding of the salience and relevance of contemporary Latin American problems. It is due on Tuesday September 27 th on Elms. Instructions will be posted on Elms one week before the assignment is due. Two In-Class Exam (25% and 35% each) There will be two exams (one midway through the semester, the other at the end) where students will be tested on their knowledge of key concepts, theories, and facts. Exam dates are Thursday, October 27th and December TBA (the University official final examination schedule becomes available midsemester on Testudo). We will have a review session on Tuesday, October 25th for the first one. To make good use of the review session, make sure you bring questions to class. Policy Memo for the president elect of the United States (20% of final grade) This final assignment gives students the opportunity to carry out research on a Latin American country of their choosing. Students will pick one issue (LGBT, Gender, Indigenous, or Environmental politics) to be explored in one country of the region. Drawing from the concepts and theories covered in the course, they will write a two-page memo to the new US president. The objective is to inform the new US president of the top two issues/problems in this policy area and recommend two policy proposals for the US to pursue through foreign policy. The memo is due on Thursday, December 8 th. Students should upload the memo to Elms and bring a hard copy to class. I will provide specific guidelines for this assignment mid-semester. Academic Honesty: Please read carefully the following statements from the UMD Teaching Policies and Guidelines: The student-administered University Honor Code and Honor Pledge prohibits students from cheating on exams, plagiarizing papers, submitting the same paper for credit in two courses without authorization, buying papers, submitting fraudulent documents and forging signatures. On every examination, paper or other academic exercise not specifically exempted by the instructor, students must write by hand and sign the following pledge, I pledge on my honor that I have not given or received any unauthorized assistance on this examination or assignment. Compliance with the code is administered by the Student Honor Council, which strives to promote a community of trust on the College Park campus. Allegations of academic dishonesty should be reported directly to the Honor Council (4-8450) by any member of the campus community. For additional information, consult the Office of Student Conduct (studentconduct.umd.edu). This course has a zero tolerance policy regarding academic dishonesty. All potential violations will be forwarded to the Student Honor Council. Students with Disabilities: Students who anticipate problems with fulfilling course requirements because of the way they see, hear, read, or get around campus should advise me within the first two weeks of class. Special arrangements will be made in cooperation with staff at the Disability Support Services ( or Dissup@umd.edu) 2
